Analysis of More and More

Robert Joseph Mattingly 1957 (Brookline, Massachusetts)



I go into her store,
India lady there,
To see her more and more;
All I do is just stare.

There is so much beauty,
In her eyes so much love.
She wears jeans that booty,
Can't take my eyes off of.

She is truly my friend,
Still from the very start.
Friendship that will not end,
Giving her all my heart.

When I come in her store,
There's what I love to see,
And that is more and more;
The smile she has for me.
